I'm at a Drum Major Institute event this morning with Governor Jon Corzine discussing New Jersey's new family leave insurance bill. After a severe car accident last year, he's now apparently running marathons and he looks slimmer and more fit than I've ever seen him. Corzine told a brief anecdote about how powerfully the Chambers of Commerce are opposing this bill even though it's "not a heavy lift on a financial basis" and their arguments are "BS".
The Paid Sick Leave/Family Care movement is working across the country, but it's just stunning to watch a pittance fought bitterly by the "business community" while taxpayers shovel hundreds of billions to the financial community with a massive bailout that is ongoing over the past year or so.
